What amazes me is that anyone really gives a crap about what Brown is doing now. He ins't a politician anymore and what he does in his business life is noones business. If he uses his contacts to establish better communication between business and government, that is what we need.One of these days, some of you might figure out that business and government need to work together, not be mortal enemies.

Let me splain it to you Lucy, Massachusetts has an open Senate seat up for grabs and Brown was defeated in the last senate election and there is a question if he would run for the open Senate seat, you with me now Lucy?? The Repubbies really really want to have someone in place that can win that seat and Brown is their only chance of doing it because they don't have many bright lights on their tree.Did that satisfy your amazement or do I need to take it one step lower?????

"That is what we need?" Really? You really have absolutely no grip on reality in the real world! It is true that you have absolutely no clue at all!

Let me give you some information. Business/corporations are too much involved in politics to the point that our economy is completely broken!

We have a stock market that has hit all time highs and an economy that borrows 40 cents for every dollar spent. This dollar includes the Iraq war costs where Halliburton won all the contracts and then decided to move its headquarters to dubai!

The Dow watches 14 corporations for an example and 80% of their operations are in India and China. So those countries GDP creates a Dow with record highs! Is this corporate involvement enough for you?

Then the politicians campaign war chest is FILLED with contributions from these corporations. We need leaders to follow the constitution for just one year and you will see the real change.

We need to bring back manufacturing and if they do not come back then we need to develop American corporations that are patriotic! We cannot sustain world leader status producing nothing!!! We are borrowing to maintain consumer spending levels that benefit GDP in China and India.

We all have to remember that the stock market created dividends since the beginning of time under AMERICAN EMPLOYEES!

If we donot bring manufacturing back then we should just join the Phillipean way of life now! The flow of money is going outward like never before. We need to stop this outflow! Employing America off corporate profits can not be sustained! Our country is the biggest consumer spender, think fora minute!

Money has to cycle within America! Our treasures are leaving which is causing us to have to borrow 40 cents for every dollar spent. This includes everything from defense to pensions for every city and state worker and beyond. Food stamps is the smallest expense! We spend 30 times welfare in the US to foreign countries welfare plus!

Debating food stamp expense for the Republicans is foolish and is self defeating! Food stampsis peanuts! You could completely stop food stamps and nothing would change as we would still be borrowing 40 cents to every dollar spent and this is fact!

How about, Government and "the people" and leaving Corporations out of Government, ringing any bells?

"Robber barons is a derogatory term applied to wealthy and powerful 19th century American businessmen. By the late 1800's, the term was typically applied to businessmen who used what were considered to be exploitative practices to amass their wealth. These practices included exerting control over national resources, accruing high levels of government influence, paying extremely low wages, squashing competition by acquiring competitors in order to create monopolies and eventually raise prices, and schemes to sell stock at inflated prices to unsuspecting investors in a manner which would eventually destroy the company for which the stock was issued and impoverish investors. The term combines the sense of criminal ("robber") and illegitimate aristocracy ("baron").[1]"

A shocking lack of understanding history!!!! Almost as if, he didn't CARE TO KNOW at all as in I live in a bubble!!

Lynch,

You are a stupid ex-con that will never have anything to offer and I would never have any interest in learning anything you want to teach. Government and business MUST work together in order for our society to survive...you are seeing evidence all around you with what happens when you morons think you can get government to bully business into doing what you want....you see moron, businesses create jobs, not government.

Government jobs are overhead...they don't produce anything tangible and do not add to the economy, they are jobs that are needed to manage a government that has become too large and imposes its will on businesses to the point where our businesses are being strangled.

You can argue your point until you are Blue in the face, but you cannot change the facts. As long as our government over-regulates the piss out of our businesses, we will see the suffering...you may not like reality, but thats how it is.

You obviously believe our government is the solution, when it is obviously the problem. If you didn't have your head stuck so far up your ass, you might learn something from someone that actually contributes to our society instead of taking from it like you...you worthless piece of shit.

Hey JF, since you are the enlightened one, what's your take on Bohner wanting budgets cuts to Medicare, Social Security and Veterans benefits. The Republicans want to tuck it to the elderly and the Veterans that fought for their country and the people in it. Please explain to us how those reductions are going to help our country. Also, ask your parents how they feel about receiving reduced benefits that they earned. A none reply means you don't have an answer.

Would you be kind enough to explain to us your definition of Gov'mnt and Business working together.... You really should stop the name calling as it's really not needed to make your points.

Florida retiree is so embarrassed that he's been commenting on this topic every single day for three years that he felt compelled to change his name. Jeez get a life why don't ya. I laughed when I came on here after months to see you're still at it.

I like Lynch he's funny as you can get. I'm going to predict his next rant.. You know nothing!! My brother was a civil war hero, my Mother ran Lincolns campain and my father came over on the Mayflower and was the first to set foot in America!

Have you ever heard of antitrust laws? Corporations have superseeded their relevance and must be control and or brought down!

America is the number one consumer in the world! American corporations depend on consumer spending in order to make profits. If I were president I would capture anything over 20 Million dollars by force. I would pass laws by capping pay to $300,000 a year. Beyond that go to another country.

Corporations have buried the American workers who made them wealthy. If it keeps up this way then their money will be worth pesos!

Baseball players making 100 million, basketball players and the list goeson and on. Schilling is reaping karma and it is comforting to watch as he bad mouthed every hard working American and degrading them at every step. He deserves nothing short of skid row!

He was overpaid for working three hrs a week and he put everyone else down in society, screw him and others that are self righteous pukes like him! He just took his bloody sock out of the hall of fame. He lost the first game he pitched which put us in the hole.

Lemont,

If you are honestly trying to ask a serious question, that is fine. If you are asking a bullshit question because you don't have the intelligence for asking an appropriate question, then I have no answer for you.

If you have proof beyond your BS rhetoric that Republicans are, as you say it, "trying to tuck it to the elderly and veterans", please provide your proof.

I am fine with having a serious discussion about the issues in our country and the realities of our government continuing to spend more money than we have, but I will wait until you ask a question that is worth answering.

THere's the "proof". Eliminate all the benefits, keep all the taxes and revenues, give massive further tax breaks to richest and increase defense spending by 500 billion and somehow since there is no mention of how the details work, magically balances the budget with asterisks!

"The president and the American people must understand that there is no negotiating with a terrorist organization, which is what the Republican Party has essentially become in 2013. Americans are beginning to understand the deep level of the Republican Party's new embrace of anarchy and the constant political campaign.

Rather than forging a novel path of actually respecting the will of voters from an election just 3 months in the past, conservatives are showing no signs of living in a world of reality, instead relitigating issues decided at the ballot box and inventing new ways to block the progress and routine operation of our nation. The GOP would take us to the very brink of disaster, then promises they want to do it again and again and again."

Read and respond to Post #4323 and please don't dance around the post as it's a serious statement. Ryans Budget is one of the main reasons Mitty is eating fluffanutter cupcakes on his Birthday and will be the reason the American people will not elect a Republican.

Watch how the Constitutionally created Government "of the people, by the people and for the people" gets spun into a desire for a Government of the corporations, by the corporations and for the corporations!!!!!

I would be more than happy in providing you with MY OPINION about government and business working together.

The vast majority of the businesses in the United States are businesses that ARE NOT publically traded corporations. That is something that seems to slip under the radar because most of the news regarding businesses are about the corporations and stockholders...they make the news for all kinds of reasons but partly because stockholders have invested in them and when they sneeze, stockholders catch a cold. The majority of working Americans work for small and medium sized businesses and are owned by a single person or family, or maybe a partnership. These people take risks in setting up these businesses because they feel they can achieve their goals by being business owners instead of working in someone else's business, and isn't that the American Dream?Businesses in general have to survive in an environment that must balance: finding work, pricing themselves to be competitive, paying wages, paying taxes, paying other business related expenses, and making enough profit to be successful by thriving and growing. This must be done within a constantly changing economical landscape, where very few things are static, and constant adjustments must be made. A business owner’s motivation is pretty clear…design a business structure that can achieve the business owner’s goals, which most times, results in other people having employment as well. This would be difficult on its own, but then we have government.
